(ANSAmed) - LUXEMBURG, APRIL 23 - ''Today the European Union and Morocco have agreed on their road map'' for the future of bilateral relations. This is the main outcome of the tenth meeting of the Council of the EU-Morocco Association, according to Morocco's Deputy Foreign Minister and Minister for Cooperation Youssef Amrani, speaking in Luxemburg today. ''We are making progress and Morocco is committed to exploring every possibility in this new strategy for relations with the EU''. Today's meeting supplied Rabat with an opportunity to ''show Morocco's special nature in the context of a turbulent region through its reforms and its constitution''. According to the former general secretary of the Union for the Mediterranean, this meeting with the EU ''comes at a time in which important deals are being signed: following that on agriculture, we have talks under way on fisheries and on services''. Rabat's objective is then to ''take this as far as possible: successful relations between Morocco and the EU can constitute an example to other countries in the region''.
